Even though it’s been thought to us in school, humankind never used money / coins in its history. It was always rather a kind of obligations and credits.
Only at the time of the ancient empires (romans, han dynasty) coins were used strongly. But mainly for paying the army soldiers. In middle age that coin thing faded again.
